Don’t grieve for me, for now I’m free,
I’m following the path God laid for me,
I took his hand when I heard Him call,
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,
To laugh to love, to work or play,
Tasks left undone must stay that way,
I found that Peace at the close of day.
If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joy,
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Oh yes, these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow,
I wish you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My life’s been full, I savored so much,
Good friends, good times, a loved one’s touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all too brief,
Don’t lengthen it now with undue grief,
Lift up your heart and share with me,
God wanted me now – He set me free
